One of the most popular actresses in the Indian film industry, Mrunal Thakur isn’t just good at acting and wins hearts with her performance; in her personal life, she often raises her voice on issues people face in the country. And this time the actress acknowledged the growing misuse of Artificial Intelligence that has been creating concerns for people across the world, especially those in the glamour world. We have seen how Rashmika Mandanna, Payal Gaming, and other celebrities’ deepfake content created buzz. As the number of these crimes is increasing, especially for actors, actress Mrunal has now taken a stand against it, threatening strict legal action.
On Tuesday, August 4, Mrunal, on her story, called creating and sharing deepfake content illegal and unacceptable. She further also threatened legal notice, saying, “Creating or sharing deepfake content using my likeness is illegal and unacceptable. Consider this your formal notice to stop immediately. Any further misuse of my identity will result in legal action.”
In the next story, Mrunal, on a sarcastic note, called out those behind deepfake content, asking fans to report such crimes: “A standing ovation for the keyboard warriors who thought there’d never be consequences. If you come across accounts harassing women or sharing Al-generated or non-consensual intimate images, tag them here.”
In her X handle, Mrunal asked fans to tag the accounts that are harassing, sharing AI-generated or intimate images, saying, “Let’s build a little Hall of Fame for the internet’s finest minds.
Girls and boys, if you spot an account harassing anyone or sharing AI-generated or non-consensual intimate images, tag it below.
Documentation is a beautiful thing.”
